Conversation On A Barstool Lyrics - Marianne Faithfull

I'm tired, so tired I can hardly stand, 

I can't breathe in the air in this city tonight. 

It's taken everything I had to give 

And now I just want to get out of here. 

But I won't be sorry if you won't be 

And I don't want your pity or your sympathy. 

But for forty-five dollars I can make it, 

You wait and see. 

He came from Miami to start out again. 

To leave him was easy, I did it all the time. 

He said that he loved me and he wanted a child, 

If he opened his mouth, he was telling you lies.

But I won't be sorry if you won't be 

And I don't want your pity or your sympathy. 

But for thirty-five dollars I can make it, 

You wait and see. 

I was an actress, a girl in the Chorus 

On Broadway I danced for a Kennedy. 

They know me in London and they know me in Paris, 

I'm only talkin' 'cause you looked like you needed a friend.

But I won't be sorry if you won't be 

And I don't want your pity or your sympathy. 

But for twenty-five dollars I'm half-way
